Calling all bibliophiles!

Have you been to your local library lately? (There are two branches in Arden Arcade: Arden-Dimmick at Watt & Northrup and Arcade on Marconi, west of Fulton.) Did you know that in addition to books they also lend out CDs and DVDs? Did you know you can access the catalog online, request books to be picked up from your nearest branch, and that when you go to pick them up, most of the materials can be checked out at a computer, without having to talk to librarians? Did you know the Friends of the Sacramento Public Library run a bookstore called The Book Den where you can buy books, CDs and DVDs on just about any topic and at incredibly low prices? (I knew, but I didn't know how good it was until I started volunteering in their warehouse. Wow!) Did you know that The Book Den has regular warehouse sales where books can be bought at even lower prices than their normally low ones? It's all true. The next warehouse sale is this Saturday, October 1.
